Research Abstract |
The aim of the present study is to develop a novel diagnosis and gene therapy system for the highly malignant tumor of salivary gland using nanobubbles and ultrasound. In the present study, by using experimental tumor model, we developed a high-resolution diagnostic imaging system utilizing nanobubbles and high-frequency ultrasound image analysis equipment. In addition, we were able to present the possibility of a new gene therapy method by transfer of a plasmid DNA, which inhibited the tumor growth, by utilizing nanobubbles and ultrasound.
